Introduce some software for Image and Video Processing

ITK Tool Kit

Welcome to the National Library of Medicine Insight Segmentation and Registration Toolkit (ITK). ITK is an open-source, cross-platform system that provides developers with an extensive suite of software tools for image analysis. Developed through extreme programming methodologies, ITK employs leading-edge algorithms for registering and segmenting multidimensional data. The goals for ITK include:

FSL is a comprehensive library of analysis tools for FMRI, MRI and DTI brain imaging data. It runs on Apple and PCs (both Linux, and Windows via a Virtual Machine), and is very easy to install. Most of the tools can be run both from the command line and as GUIs (“point-and-click” graphical user interfaces). To quote the relevant references for FSL tools you should look in the individual tools’ manual pages, and also please reference the FSL overview papers:

Acquire, process, and analyze images and video for algorithm development and system design

Algorithm development is central to image and video processing because each situation is unique, and good solutions require multiple design iterations. MathWorks provides a comprehensive environment to gain insight into your image and video data, develop algorithms, and explore implementation tradeoffs.

With MathWorks tools for image and video processing, you can:

Acquire images and video from imaging hardware

Use graphical tools to visualize and manipulate images and video

Develop new ideas using libraries of reference-standard algorithms

Migrate designs to embedded hardware

IPOL is a journal of image processing and image analysis. Each article contains a text describing an algorithm and source code, with an online demonstration facility and an archive of online experiments. The text and source code are peer-reviewed and the demonstration is controlled. IPOL follows the Open Access and Reproducible Research models.
